jazbaat-e-mohabbat chhup na sake go zabt se hum ne kaam liya
ashk aankhon mein apne bhar aae jab tera kisi ne nam liya

is shiddat-e-gham ke hathon hum majbur bhi thi mayus bhi the
kahna tha bahut kuchh kah na sake aankhon se zaban ka kaam liya

kuchh arsh-e-barin tharra uttha aur jinn-o-malaik kanp gae
jab main ne larazte hathon mein ulfat ka chhalakta jam liya

khud apne kiye par nadim the phir kis ki shikayat hum karte
ek aanch na un par aane di sab apne hi sar ilzam liya

kyon arz-e-tamanna par 'sahir' phir aaj wo hans kar jate the
tauhin-e-mohabbat sah na saka aur badh ke daman tham liya
